At your request personal files can be displayed.

Current options:
>Invest in repairing ship. Engines and Communication systems are damaged. Returning non-compliant Dominion Personnel will become problematic.

>Bring Hercules alongside D.S.S. Junkworthy. Salvage all Minerals and Vespene.

>>25770783
hm I like these marines they may not be loyalist bastards around but they are willing to stick their necks out for each other. I like that. a lot.

>>25770849
Bring the Hercules alongside. We just want the resources not the ship.

>>25770849
>>Bring Hercules alongside D.S.S. Junkworthy. Salvage all Minerals and Vespene.
not worth the risk

But make our off to join known throughout the entire crew

>>25770858
Also requesting personal files.

>>25770864
Entire crew was located in the Bridge to provide resistance.

89% of the ship is dedicated to cargo storage. No other life signs detected.

>>25770849
Repair ship. we can drop off the prisoners with a home made distress beacon on the mining planet when we're about to leave.

>>25770849
Who are the men that are refusing to join our cause?

>>25770849
We'll repair the ship after we take the loot.

>>25770882
Isn't our so called cause at this point just an excuse to get people to join us?

Huh, Gary is coming into his selfless doctor roll pretty well. I don't mind him treating potential hostiles as long as he does our own wounded first.

Also loot the ship, leave the ones who don't want to accompany us a beacon that will start transmitting in say 3 days. Enough time for us to mine a little and maybe steal some schematics... like an engineering bay and missile turrets.

>>25770882
Either out of loyalty to the captain or loyalty to the dominion. or they just don't like pirates

>>25771085
the brothers are the ones who Don't want to join

>>25771091
oh darn... oh well.

>>25771070

maybe we can persuade them, or at least see what their objections are.

>>25771070
Again, why don't these guys want to join us?

As you review the personal files of your new recruits, you hear your marines at the bridge. Corporal Henderson seems to be giving the new recruits some background on just how many hundreds of thousand of Dominion officers you - "The boogeyman" - have single-handedly killed.

Meanwhile, Private Jenkins radios approach vectors to the Hercules, and prepares to release all of the ships Cargo.

You make for the engineering bay to see what objections the two remaining brothers have.

>"Bloody 'ell, didn't think Johnny-John was serious when he said it was a rogue ghost... You, uh, you ain't real, are you? Oh! Oh! What color am I thinkin' about!"

You scan the surface thoughts of the brother your HUD identifies as 'Bob'.

>"You aren't. You're thinking of the number seven."
>"Well butter my biscuit."
>"Why do you two wish to remain with the Dominion?"

They look at eachother, then the other brother, 'Dick', responds:
>"We've served on ships all over the sector. Dominion, Confederate, Kel-Morian, you name it! We're in it for the long haul, buddy. Ain't much life expectancy in your line of work, you know what I'm saying?"
>"Besides! The Dominion pays us more than those knuckle-draggers that're linin' up to shoot people for you. I can retire at 55 if I stay with the engineer corps!"

Awaiting orders.
>...

>>25771170
could give you better pay. And you'll probably get to see exotic places, too.

>>25771170
ask them if they would want to serve on a Gorgon

>>25771170
How much are the Dominion paying you anyway? Maybe we can match the price.

>>25771170
Eh, let em go. They're happy how they are.
They seem like sellswords with low loyalty anyways.

Probably too expensive for us to support.

>>25771206
this

>>25771177
>>25771196
>"I could offer you better pay. Exotic locations. And you would be serving on a Gorgon-Class Battlecruiser."

It's clear neither of them believes you as they burst out laughing.

>"A GORGON 'e says! Well, if you believe that Valkyrie out there's a Gorgon I have a Thor to sell you! Let me just order one up from my command center!"

>"Exotic locations, you hear? Why, we could be spendin' our weekends on Exotic Char! Minin' zerglin' poop to make ends meet!"

>"Speaking of end's meet, did you hear about that better pay? I bet these pirates are so rich they get a whole meal EVERY day!"

At this point the two devolve into hysterical laughter.

Awaiting orders.
>...

>>25771224
shrug and walk away.

>>25771224
Get ready for departure.

>>25771236

This pretty much, if that's how they want to do it then that's how it'll be done.

>>25771224

how rude, we'll just take what came here for and be on our way.

>we do have a Gorgon, right? i kinda forgot...

>>25771224
You know what? I think I'll keep you clown around just long enough for you to see everything you just said transpire. Then I'm going to throw your asses at the nearest Dominion base I can find and scrawl little penises all over your faces.

>>25771243
nah, too juvenile.

>>25771242

We're going to get one.

>>25771242
Repairs to the Hydron are not yet underway. Additional minerals are required.

>>25771243
>Scrawl little penises all over your faces
Man my sides

>>25771250
can we get a tally of what we have (including the haul from this raid) VS what we need?

>>25771224
they just laughed in are face. read their minds and find their greatest fears and make them live it

>>25771242
Yep. X'd.

>>25771224
Let em go. There'll be more engies.

You leave the brothers to their hysterics, order your men back to the Hercules, and plan your next move.

>Sabotage Dominion Security Base (Reduce likelihood of detection. High risk.)
>Begin mining operations at unexploited region (Possibility of being detected by Dominion patrols.)
>Liberate Mining Camp A-JK-10 (Acquire additional SCVs and potential mining location, Extreme risk while Dominion security network is online.)

>>25771266

maybe just offhandedly mention some embarrassing detail from their minds.

>>25771283
>>Sabotage Dominion Security Base (Reduce likelihood of detection. High risk.)
no more detecting, damnit!

>Sabotage Dominion Security Base (Reduce likelihood of detection. High risk.)

>>25771260

>Gas: 750

>>25771283
>Begin mining operations at unexploited region (Possibility of being detected by Dominion patrols.)
Sounds like the more moderate of choices.

>>25771283
Sabotage security base. Which we as the only ghost unit will do. also make sure to have the banshee nearby and stealthed in case the shit hits the fan.

Our rest of our forces meanwhile will setup shop in an unexploited region.

>>25771283
>Sabotage Dominion Security Base
We're a cocky risktaking bastard and there's no reason to stop now.

>>25771283
Take out that SEcurity base

>>25771287
>>25771289
>>25771294
We barely survived an encounter with gangsters so now we're assaulting a Dominion security base? What?

>>25771296
correction, we're a cocky risktaking Bitch

>>25771301
Because otherwise we get detected and then swamped.

>>25771302
who nobody knows is female

I want to see their reactions when they find out, Henderson especially

>>25771301
basiaclly its risk vs reward. We either take this out or get pounced on the instant they detect our mining op.

>>25771312
that'd be hilarious.
well, i'm out. good luck with the rest.

>>25771323
Let's do it. The Colonel can hold things down back at base.

>>25771323
yes, make sure Mia keeps Knife stealthed until we need her

>>25771323
y

>>25771323
Y.

>>25771333
one thing we might want to do is work to disable all air defences so Mia can get to work.

>>25771330
Indeed.
Have her set up for quick extraction.
We don't want a repeat of our last incident.

>>25771323
yes

>>25771341
good idea

>Mission Briefing Begins.

Scans indicate the security base has 4 main sections.

>Sensor Suite
>Marine Barracks
>Hellion production
>Supply Depots + Engineering

Upon sounding the alert Dominion patrols will be recalled to this base. We have limited time until forces are too overwhelming and extraction is required.

Primary objective will be the sensor suite. Select method of entry:

>Overland, enter via main gates. Order Banshee attack on Dominion Patrol to draw attention. (65% chance of sounding alarm, low risk. Banshee support unavailable.)

>Use Ghost access codes to disable sensor suite, use Banshee to assault sensor suite. (100% chance of sounding alarm, but sensors will immediately go down and you will be at the center of the base. 50% chance your codes are invalid, putting you at extreme risk.)

>Hide in Mineral transport, enter via back gates. (0% risk of sounding alarm. 40% chance of being detected by sensors.)

>Exterminate member of Dominion patrol and assume their identity. (20% chance of sounding alarm. 50% chance of entering base undetected. Will acquire Hellion.)

>>25771388
>Exterminate member of Dominion patrol and assume their identity. (20% chance of sounding alarm. 50% chance of entering base undetected. Will acquire Hellion.)

I love free shit

>>25771388
>Exterminate member of Dominion patrol and assume their identity. (20% chance of sounding alarm. 50% chance of entering base undetected. Will acquire Hellion.)
Taking shit that isn't ours is the name of the game.

>>25771388
>Exterminate member of Dominion patrol and assume their identity. (20% chance of sounding alarm. 50% chance of entering base undetected. Will acquire Hellion.)

Hopefully this works. Despite being a ghost we don't seem to be very good at our job. At least when it doesn't directly involve killing people.

>>25771388
>Exterminate member of Dominion patrol and assume their identity. (20% chance of sounding alarm. 50% chance of entering base undetected. Will acquire Hellion.)

Gives us another way out as well

>>25771405
We're just rusty... That's all...

>>25771405
>we don't seem to be very good at our job. At least when it doesn't directly involve killing people.

Just wait until we try to call in a nuke and hit an orbiting moon...

>Registering Consensus.

You have Mia drop you off at one of the patrol locations, to set an ambush. Before long you see the dust clouds, and can make out the shimmer of vehicles. As they come closer you can identify the force. An APC escorted by 3 Hellions.

You stand ready, stealthed, and the vehicles approach the entrance to this canyon. There's only the one way past, and they're coming right for you.

You mark your target, the leftmost Hellion, it's closest to the rear and will be the hardest for your opponents to see. It approaches you, perhaps close to 30 or 40 miles per hour.

Slow enough. You begin running in the same direction, taking off as much speed as you can, pushing the Cirus suit and your own psionics to the limit. As the Hellion passes your side you jump and grab on. You open the cockpit, extend your wrist-mounted combat knife, and kill the operator. The hellion swerves, and would nearly hit the APC if not for your reflexes grabbing the wheel. You dump the deceased hellion driver out and assume his seat, lower the cockpit, and disable your stealth. The patrol is none the wiser.

Minutes later the gates of the Dominion security base are in front of you. The convoy slows down as the sensors scan for any abnormal signs.

Your luck doesn't hold out. A klaxon sounds, red lights spin, the door begins to close. You won't make it in time. However, mineral-hauler debris to your right poses a very rough makeshift ramp. You floor it, jump the closing gate, and find yourself in the base. The alarm has sounded, your Adjutant calculates remaining mission time. Several marines open fire, but the hellion is far to fast. You make for the sensor suite.

>Remaining time: 19:52.

>Detonate hellion to destroy sensors: 1:31 (100% chance of hellion loss)
>Overload sensor reactor: 2:29
>Hijack nearby anti-aircraft cannon, disable sensors: 2:02 (50% chance of hellion loss)

>>25771503
Man we seriously are the worst at being stealthy.

OVerload sensor reactor

>>25771531
Adjutant cuddle times are a go

I just realized something. The reason why we haven't even looked at any of our crewmembers is because we're a robophile.

You drive the hellion to the nearest anti-air emplacement, and fry the operator. You open the cockpit, take control of the cannon, and blow the sensors apart piece by piece. You take as much time as you can, the sensor has to be beyond repair for as long as you'll be operating on the planet.

You exit the emplacement, sensors significantly damaged, and find your hellion intact. You quickly board it and prepare for your next objective.

>Remaining time: 17:50

You may order banshee strikes on one location and travel to a second location. Transit time to any destination is 6:52.

>Marine Barracks
>Hellion production
>Supply Depots + Engineering

>>25771545
Personal note: You don't need humans, Delta Phoenix. They are afraid of you. They don't understand you like I do.

>>25771545
Nah its just that we're still shell shocked from ghost treatment. Once that gets fixed we will actually be able to be human again. At least if we don't die first when it comes to sucking as a ghost. Seriously how the hell did we make it through basic training were we just that good at killing?

>>25771555
Hellion production

>>25771555
>Marine Barracks have mia strike here while we go to Supply Depots + Engineering

order a strike on
>marine baracks
visit
>engineering. Lets get them schematics... maybe we won't get captured a fourth time.

>>25771562
apparently its mutual.

>>25771555
Whichever option gets us a engineering Bay

seriously, need one of those

>>25771562
we just need to get you a body or a few bodies

>>25771569
i blame freedom. It made us slightly off kilter. We want to take risks because now the mission DOESN'T come first. Plus I bet we are a complete adrenaline junky.

>>25771555
After this lets congratulate Mia and try to up her morale. I like her, don't want her to defect.

>Achieving consensus

You order Banshee strikes on the Marine barracks, hoping to take out Dominion infantry support. You head to engineering to do as much damage to their supplies as possible.

>Remaining time: 10:58

>Overload reactors, move out: 1:59
>Acquire Schematics: Combat Shields: 1:42
>Acquire Schematics: Engineering Bay: 2:10
>Acquire Schematics: Turrets: 2:31

How much time do we spend at this objective?

>>25771624
can we doing everything I want to do everything

>Acquire Schematics: Engineering Bay: 2:10
>Acquire Schematics: Turrets: 2:31
both please.

>Overload reactors, move out: 1:59
That gives us three+ minutes for extraction.

>>25771634
Tactical note: We will not have enough time to destroy hellion production or acquire hellion or factory schematics.

Acquiring all schematics and destroying Dominion engineering will give us a serious infantry advantage.

>>25771624
>Combat Shields
>Turrets
>Overload Reactors

We'll be cutting it close.

>>25771624
Acquire ALL

Then Overload reactors

>>25771654
you need an engineering bay to build turrets

>>25771651
Yeeeees this

>>25771624

>Overload reactors, move out: 1:59
>Acquire Schematics: Combat Shields: 1:42
>Acquire Schematics: Engineering Bay: 2:10
These.

>>25771664
Oh.

Well then another vote for this >>25771651

>>25771651
Hellions lack AA right so using are air force would give us control of the battlefield

If we do all, we will have less than 2:30 to exfiltrate. Don't take the risk. We can take less for more leeway.

>>25771562
>They don't understand you like I do.
Then why do you not understand us showing our love for you by giving you glorious upgrades?

if we do the Take everything option would we have enough time to drop our mines at the entrance of the base?

I want to leave the incoming forces a ... surprise.

>>25771693
This guy has a point, going for >>25771674

We don't really need turrets urgently, seeing as we're ship based right now, right?

>>25771703
You may have a point...if it's not too late, we can leave turrets behind for now

>>25771703
yep, so I'll second >>25771674

>>25771703
turrets are the only detectors we have available... thats the primary reason I want them. If we get burrowed zerg or hostile protoss our forces are screwed.

>>25771711
If only we had a damn Orbital Command...

>Optimizing Consensus.

You determine that you do not have enough time to deactivate engineering and also disrupt hellion production without acquiring schematics. Your overall objectives are more important than your sabotage, and you decide to take everything you can get.

As you upload files on combat shields, turrets, and engineering bays to the Hercules, you can hear Mia's work over the radio.

>"I can't see it! Where is it!? Where is it shooting from!?"
>"All units keep firing! Clip that banshee's wings!"
>"Bravo squad has gone dark! Charlie squad has gone dark! That banshee is murdering us out there!"
>"My leg! My leg! Meeeeedddiiccc!"

Your time is up. Schematics are uploaded. Reactor will go critical soon.

>Time remaining: 2:36

Time to make your escape.

>Escape via hellion. 75% Chance of Success. Acquire Hellion.
>Banshee Extraction. 100% Chance of Success.

>Escape via hellion. 75% Chance of Success. Acquire Hellion.

>>25771723
Banshee extraction. We don't really have need of a Hellion at the moment.

>>25771723
...will we acquire Hellion schematics if we take a hellion?

Know what, doesn't matter. We don't have Factory schematics.

Tell Mia to pick our ass up

>>25771723
escape via hellion

Meanwhile order the banshee to make a quick run over the hellion production area during her escape.

>>25771723
If we have enough time for the banshee to come get us
>>Banshee Extraction. 100% Chance of Success.

But if we have to wait 6 minutes for it then
>Escape via hellion. 75% Chance of Success. Acquire Hellion.

>>25771740
We can reverse-engineer the hellion with our engineering bays once engineers are assigned.

>>25771723
>Banshee Extraction. 100% Chance of Success
Do we even have space for another vehicle? Besides we do have vultures in the ship

>>25771723
Banshee extraction. Delta Phoenix is so ridiculously bad she'll probably somehow enable the hellbat mode despite it being offline, but INSIDE OUT and barbeque herself.

>>25771723
>Escape via hellion. 75% Chance of Success. Acquire Hellion.

>>25771753
we really don't have the pilots for it... but it'd be nice against the zerg as an option. You know since we are headed to a zerg world for that Goliath Class Battlecruiser.

>>25771723
>>Escape via hellion. 75% Chance of Success. Acquire Hellion.

>>25771723
Definitely Banshee Extraction

Voting Banshee, no question.

>>25771760
But again, no pilot and no factory.

Best just to stick with superior infantry and pray they don't have Banelings

And I mean pray

>>25771771
the more you pray they don't have them the higher the chance they do

>>25771760
The Hydron is in orbit and derelict. We need firebats for clearing them for the boarding action. Infact, when we get there it'll be us, medics, firebats and we'd have to fuck the hercules off, since it wouldn't be able to stand up to the Swarm.

>>25771771
Delta can pilot it. I think Henderson was listed as a vulture pilot so he could as well.

>>25771771
The local zerg queen there loves bane rain drops.

>>25771771
>>25771788
So do we or do we not have firebats?

>>25771805
>>25771805
We have the pre brood war versions at our disposal.

>>25771805
we do

>>25771805
We do have firebats, it's just that banelings pretty much rape infantry even if they have napalm on their side.

>>25771805
we have the schematics and can build suits, but we don't have anyone currently in the suits

>>25771805
We do. Just no hellions, which won't be needed unless we go planetside.

>>25771789
Grab the damn hellion for henderson, If raynor got a vulture this guy deserves a hellion.

>>25771821
wrong! we have 2 or 3 firebats currently.

>>25771825
i stand corrected

>>25771815
Negative. CMC-660 Hellbats are in service currently. These are the same model employed by Dominion forces.

Reading through previous threads, this anon had a good point.

>We should take what we can find, frankly. That being said, sustainability is also important. IE, no point at all in shit we can't produce and won't be using, and we shouldnt' even be buildign an "army" yet.

>We're building a boarding team and crew to man a single ship and a couple of escorts, and need to focus on versatility, so shit like say, siege tanks? Right out. The goliath gets my vote for being a reliable vehicle that cna engage any target, firebtas help with our immediate goal, marines are versatile as shit, ect.

>So, some points
>-we can always attempt to use stealth

I pretty much agree entirely with this. Get the Gorgon, fix it up just enough to get the fuck out of there and we can spend more time on repairing it properly elsewhere.

>"Rodriguez, my mission is complete. Status report, over."
>"Oh-ho-ho. It's like fish in a barrel. I count more corpses than marines, and the barracks is blown wide open!"
>"Report to my coordinates for extraction.

You turn towards the barracks, attempting to rendezvous halfway if at all possible. Any resistance you drive past you strafe with your infernal flamethrowers. As you approach your extraction point your HUD displays a warning. Time's up.

Several ATVs and squads of hellions begin to circle you. Stray auto-turret fire from an ATV takes out your wheels and your flamethrower. You are outgunned and completely surrounded. You open the cockpit and step out. A loudspeaker blares:

>"Put your hands over your head an' don't move or I will shoot you so fuckin' dead!"

You comply, raising your arms up.

It's very fortunate that they were too focused on you to even think that the stealthed Banshee was overhead. You grab on to the extraction ladder as you shoot up into the sky. Outside of range the Banshee decloaks. Mission successful.

Several hours later you are aboard the Hercules.

Awaiting next mission.

Is it first or second gen?

>>25771841
s-s-suckers

hopefully this improved Mia's morale somewhat.

>>25771834
>>25771822

These make it pretty obvious for me. We don't need a Hellion, and it's not worth the risk.

Uploading schematics to HUD for clarification.

We'll want to rescue that guy's family now. I'm assuming hes in that mining camp mentioned.

also for our base we'll definately want to be setting up bunkers for our marines.
We're going to be facing hellions.

>>25771843
Its the Starcraft 2 version bro.

>>25771841
We need to start mining in the unknown regions of the planet, with the banshee regularly patrolling incase the Dominion comes looking for us with hellions.

>>25771848
What do the guys in the powersuits do when something begins to itch?

>>25771841
>Acquire large-processored slut body.

Um. What's our rough man and resource count?

>>25771841
Excellent job Mia, Adjutant, couldn't do this shit without you

Our next Objective: Prepare for mining operations. With the sensor towers down and chaos about, we should be able to set up undisturbed and mine happily away, correct?

>>25771857
Note: CMC-660 Operators register itch complaints 24% more often than standard CMC operators.

>>25771844
We need to give her the highest five.

>>25771857
why do you think the vast majority of firebats are crazy resocc'd guys?

>>25771841
Well now time for mining. Also the Dominion will be hunting the Banshee in full force so we might want to hide it inside the Hercules for the time being.

>>25771848
Oh its second gen. Come to think of it combine that with the grenade launcher specs we got. And if we find ourselves an engineer we can build ourselves some marauders. Their based of the same armor except marauders use grenade launchers instead of flamers.

>>25771841
Personally thank Mia for the extraction, make her feel appreciated, good for morale, will keep her from defecting. High fives and verbal acknowledgement are in order, perhaps even a thumbs up. Hugs are not warranted at this juncture.

I think the Security Network is down now, if not please correct me Adjutant, in which case begin Liberation of Mining Camp A-JK-10, it gets us more SCVs which we well and truly need in order to repair the Gorgon, and keeps our crew happy which leads to better work from them.

>>25771857
They cope.

>>25771875
Notice: We do not have schematics for Punisher Grenade launchers, or punisher grenades. Only A-13 Grenade launchers and flares.
Addendum: It would be possible to create a 'flashbang' support CMC-660 utilizing this technology if we acquire some engineers.

>>25771866
poor Adjutant can't even feel what an itch is like, why won't you lets us upgrade you?

>>25771841
Fuck yes.

>>25771883
Can we stick gauss rifles where the grenade launchers would be and make it into a bullet-hose suit?

>>25771876
Liberation of Mining Camp A-JK-10 will likely result in additional SCVs and operators. It will increase the loyalty of our civilian population an ex-dominion marines as their friend is re-united with his family.

Please note that the mining camp will be defended by Hellions and a very small marine contingent. Hellions currently pose an extreme risk to our infantry forces.

>>25771893
a DAKKArauder? this warrants further explanation...

>>25771876
Well, we could use the attack as a diversion. Say if a Dominion patrol comes too close to our mining op, we hit the camp and steal stuff. The patrol comes running after which we'll have escaped with the loot and have mined enough material to repair the Gorgon-class battlecruiser.

>>25771876
I agree with everything here.

We're only repairing the Gorgon to the bare minimum required to move it to somewhere safer, yes?

>>25771899
We should go in for a stealth mission then.
Don't need to lose infantry on this expedition.

>>25771893
It is possible to modify the C-14 Rifle with Bayonet Affix to be used with CMC-660 suits.

Please note that no resoc program exists for training units to this role.

>>25771899
That is what the is banshee for. Have it wreck the hellions and then have our infantry advance.

>>25771899
re: the Hellions, is there something near the mining camp that we could use as a distraction to draw them away and then lure them into a trap using our aircraft?

>>25771909
We won't need one. It will be "Think you're using fire, but with bullets."

>>25771909
Ah so we don't have access to any heavy machine guns? Damn gonna have to put that on the shopping list.

>>25771907
Current mineral estimates are for complete restoration.

Crew compliment is currently too low to man weapons. Engines, navigation, and life support are the only subsystems available until more crew is acquired.

>>25771899
Can the BOSUNFN92 rifle penetrate the windshield or the Hellion?

>>25771899
Does the camp have anti-air forces? If not what about using our air forces to strike the hellions, then have out infantry run in, grab the families, and leave ASAP?

>>25771899
Just banshee it, hellions can't do shit and between cloak and maneuverability, a few marines wwon't matter either.

It's like I really am playing WoL ca. 2010!

>>25771899
Use the banshee against the hellions. Cloak and snipe the marines. Can't give advice with more tactical detail than that at the moment.

>>25771916
The mining camp is located at the edge of a Dune sea.

It is the only Dominion installation within 26 miles.

A civilian town is located 5.3 miles to the west of the location. It is only 43% likely that Dominion forces would respond to the town if we were to threaten it.

>>25771940
Do we have the capability to make combat shields yet?

>>25771899
How many hellions are there? What level of stealth detection do they have? Where are the Hellions kept and maintained?

Possibilities, lure hellions away with a distraction and throw a banshee at them, should they lack sensor capabilities there is no need to even lure them away.

Alternative, sneak in ourself, ruin Hellion support prior to attack.

>>25771940
In event of threat on town what forces would respond? Would it be a full contingent or just the hellions which are faster than everything else?

>>25771922
BOSUNFN92 Rifles are capable of penetrating the armor of all mechanized Terran ground units.

>>25771940
Air raid + Stealth it is then

we need to disable the hellions as fast as possible so our marines can get dropped off without melting

>>25771945
Combat shields are currently in production and will be available in future deployments.

>>25771952
>In event of threat on town what forces would respond?
we aint attacking a random town that is less than likely to draw a response...

>>25771955
Information on number of Hellion units?
And we should have our sniper (Who's name I'm forgetting right now) take some of them down.

We should probably scope out the area to learn their patrol paths and schedules. Also possibly doing per-attack sabotage.

>>25771962
I was curious, information is good.

>>25771958
Also, Adjutant, are there any environmental features of note around the mining base? If there's high ground we can use than our job becomes much easier.

Banshee is the obvious choice.

Maybe up whatever we pay Mia a little since she's definitely been MVP since joining, and a combo of 2 successful raids (assuming this works) and a bit more credits should do wonders for morale.

>>25771940
Marines can create a ruckus in the town. Say a bank robbery or a hit on anything important to the Dominion. The banshee will be waiting for the hellions between the camp and the town. We will be stationed near the mining camp so when the hellions leave and get attacked by the banshee, that will be the signal to liberate the camp.

>>25771968
Hey we can also snipe its just everything that doesn't directly relating to killing that we suck at.

>>25771952
Scans indicate four squads of three hellions patrolling the camp, and one squad of five marines with marauder support.

Anti-aircraft is limited to 3 conventional flak emplacements.

Mia's combat effectiveness puts estimates at her ability to destroy any 3 objectives before cloaking fails due to energy concerns.

>>25771952
if they send in just the hellions we could get them in a turkey shoot with are banshee

>>25771962
It is likely to draw the attention of 1 hellion squad and 1 marine squad, if any.

>>25771958
does this base have physical Adjutants we could 'evict' from their bodies, we need to get you something you can call home that also looks rather fetching

>>25771975
Seconding a little pay increase.

"Maybe a few more credits your way will convince you not to cut it so close this time, eh?"

>>25771969
Scans are currently mapping Dominion patrols. Information will be available as necessary for mission deployment.

>>25771971
The mining encampment is on flat terrain with no fortifications. Dunes to the north range in height from 6 to 10 feet and will provide minor cover from sight.

>>25771981
We could have her hit the hellions then and snipe the mauader personally. Would we need to drop the anti-air turrets before she can attack?

>>25771986
Not really interested in attacking the town, even a mock attack won't make our crew too happy. The civvie ones anyway.

>>25771995
How many units can we get combat ready to deploy and what type?

>>25771987
As this base has no command center physical Adjutant bodies are unlikely.

>>25772003
How well do Hellions handle the dunes?

>>25772003
hrm, we could have Mia in Knife hit the base and run, drawing away some hellions, and have DP and Henderson in the dunes waiting for the marines + marauder to come out, snipe them, and then move our marines into the camp.

Once in the camp, it should provide ample cover to use against the hellions when they return

>>25772014
Do any markets sell sex bots? Do any have the capability of housing an Adjutant?

>>25772008
we don't really need to attack it just get whoever is in change to say they are under attack

>>25772010
Resources are as follows:

Marines: 4

Firebats: 3

Medics: 2 CMC

Vultures: 1 (Qualified pilots: Delta Phoenix, Corporal Henderson, Kyle Julian.)

SCVs: 8

1 Command Center

1 Barracks

:(

>>25772018

>>25771980
Sure we can, but then we can't do anything else really.

>>25771981
Is pre-mission infiltration possible?
We could sabotage the AAs to explode on use.
Hellions use fuel correct? Can we destroy the fuel dump with a timed explosive?

>>25772015
The ATV body of the hellions can navigate the 6% gradient slopes easily. Slopes will only provide visual cover and cover from small arms fire.

>>25772021
Town records indicate the current Marshall is a Dominion loyalist.

Cooperation is only 11% likely.

>>25772022
wasn't the banshee named Knife?

>>25772039
Updating records.

>>25772022
Voting to name Hercules Class Transport "Mumma"

>>25772018
I know, right? Shouldn't be that hard to find something that can at least look nice and move about. Or perch on our lap and confuse everyone later. I'm sure there'd be a market for it.

>>25772022
And we're going up against four hellion squads, marines, and marauders? Doesn't look that great for us. Waiting for someone to suggest something wise.

We have access to lockdown correct? We can use that against the hellions.

Basic Strategy:

Mia hits one patrol around a flat ground while we hit another in the dunes. I bet the third patrol will turtle up with the marines at that point.

At that point we ghost in to disable the anti air and start picking off marines.

Once the marines are gone our other air can pick the final hellions off with impunity.

>>25772045
We could snipe and act as support for our marines, medics, and firebats. Could also use the vulture as a recon unit to alert us when any patrols are coming back.

>>25772017
I'd like to suggest a tweak to this plan. We get Henderson to go in with our vulture, shoot a grenade to get their attention then move back to our ambush site. We will be taking out the AA once they take the bait.

>>25772046
>lockdown
do you mean lockdown rounds? if so, what are their capabilities

>>25772046
We only have access to one lockdown per deployment.

>>25772063
disables machines for a period.

>>25772046
This all sounds reasonable. Has my vote.

>>25772066
>>25772065
Use it against the patrol we ambush, in my opinion.

>>25772077
agreed, maybe we can get a hellion after all heh.

>>25772046
Seconded. May as well do this and improvise once we hit some bumps.

>>25772080
Why do we want Hellions again? I thought we were going to pretty much stick to what is immediately useful to ship-to-ship combat and boarding actions?

So I see you guys are against sabotage?>>25772030

>>25772099
oh, didn't see you post, if this is possible, then it looks half decent

>>25772094
Well while hardly a priority, hellions are still useful for on-site transportation and scouting. Then again, we have a vulture to do that with as well, not like that's much more useful (spider-mines when?)

>>25772046
>>25772022
I wonder... can we bring the wraith along as well? It would be helpful .Or does Dave and Carol only pilot Valks

>>25772046
We have a Vulture, we put someone in it, probably Kyle, and he leads a patrol of Helions on a merry chase, it'll buy us time, he ought to go as fast or faster than them, and has better range, so he either run if they chase, or chase if they run, keep them from doing stuff.

Also, we have Recluse mines, if we're hiding out in the dunes we should plant those down to fuck over incoming Helions.

If we can do pre-mission infiltration and sabatoge, which I'm not sure about considering that it's pretty fucking flat between here and the enemy, we should do so, either take out their flak cannons with explosives so that once the marines are dead the Mia can kill everything at her leisure, or take out the Hellion fuel to render them unoperational or something, maybe both.

>>25772112
this sounds good

>>25772112
I kinda like the idea of having our Vulture lead the third patrol on a chase. Using mines and his range\speed advantage he might even take them out.

We really should just leave it. Air patrols will let us keep an eye out for Hellion patrols, assuming they even notice us at all while we mine.

>>25772112
It's risky though, certainly he's not at a disadvantage in speed, but they'll know the lay of the land far better AND can split up for pincer-attacks and the like. Considering Mia is at literally zero risk against patrols and very little against the base proper I'm not a big fan of the plan.

>>25772104
I just don't see any reason to grab stuff we don't really need. A vulture will do the hellions job better, and with a more obvious get-the-hell-out-of-here escape option.

We're after as few feet on the ground as possible, and for as shot a time as possible.

>Registering Consensus.

You deploy yourself and your infantry in the dunes, as well as your vulture. With a quick salute the vulture pilot, Private Kyle Julian, heads to intercept his patrol. With the Dominion's sensors offline there is not chance of you being detected. The Dominion patrols are clearly mapped, so you set up an ambush easily.

>"Rodriguez reporting. I am in position."
>"Fire at will."
>"I read you."

You wait a few minutes before you see the dust clouds. The hellions zip by quickly. You take careful aim and fire your lockdown at the frontmost hellion. It siezes up, turns to the right, and starts to roll. The other two hellions slow to a halt, almost exactly in your kill zone. Your marines rise up from behind the dunes and open fire. The hellions are taken by surprise and one is out of commission almost immediately. The final hellion attempts an escape, but has a tire shot out and flips. Barney, the purple firebat, is the first on the scene and eagerly roasts the driver.

>"Rodriguez, status report."
>"I've taken out the second patrol.
>"Private Julian, Status report."
>"Third patrol eliminated, sir."

Scans indicate they are following your plan exactly. The remaining patrols have fallen back to the camp.

>Loading second objective...

>>25772145
Aye, Mia is the better choice.

Which is why we're paying her shitloads more after this, right guys?

>>25772148
Barney should receive an anonymous donation to be put towards upgrading his personal firebat

>>25772148
That went well, good. Only makes me suspicious of what we'll find when we get there though.

>>25772161
No instead she gets a one time bonus. Gotta save up our money you know.

>>25772148
You activate your stealth reactor and make for the base. The dominion had an idea, though. They knew what was coming. The civilians have been gathered at the center of the camp, and the one remaining hellion squad has their flamethrowers pointed at the civilians. What you gather to be the squad leader has a megavox and starts to speak:

>"We know you're here! You open fire on us and we'll set all these nice folks right on fire! So you just pack up an' get the hell out of here!"

The civilians are too close to the hellions to call in a banshee strike.

Hellion cockpits are polarized against your flashbang rounds.

No suggestions available.
Awaiting orders.
>...

>>25772177
Can we kill the driver or disable the flamethrower with one shot without it going off/exploding?

>>25772177
Call up our sniper. The both of us will take out them out. Seeing their leader's head blown of and one of their comrades as well. Should send them packing.

>>25772170
So, we pay her like comission, except it's coMISSION. As in a bonus that's mission-to-mission, geddit?

:D

>>25772177
can we use our psionics to get into the Hellion drivers minds? if so how many?

also, there is 3 hellions in a squad right? we can have Henderson snipe the driver of on, we can do another, that leaves 1, as long as we can mind control him we should be right

>>25772188
their is more then one

>>25772177
How many Hellions are there again? Three?
That's gonna be tough... Are they lined up? Can we psy shot straight through all three at the right angle?

>>25772177
Huh. Well, if we can resolve this, the civilians won't be very Dominion-loyal at least.

>>25772194
>>25772197
either of these would work.

>>25772190
Nope. Odds are more likely the last guy will fry the civilians in a panic.

How about we let them leave alive if they let the civvies go?

>>25772177
>>25772194
This, is the hellion driver REALLY comfortable killing civilians not only innocent but entirely unrelated to us? Invade their mind for things to use while stalling by trying to reason (pretend we took hostages to ransom perhaps?).

>>25772213
I agree with this.

If we can signal Mia to get into position to smoke one of them at the same time, all the better.

>>25772188
Current estimates of Delta Phoenix's abilities render her able to kill 2 hellion drivers before they are able to fire if she disables her cloak for psionic rounds.

>>25772194
Delta Phoenix's abilities are limited to reading thoughts and memories. Mind control is an impossibility at this time.

>>25772197
Hellions are in triangular formation.

>>25772177
Hmm, no flashbangs or banshee, that's annoying.

Don't take any actions quite yet. Attempt to read the leader's mind, see if there is anything there to exploit, anything he cares about, if he has a family, close friends, anyone who's life he cares about, perhaps we can tell him that we have that person and if he plays nice we won't spend a month torturing them.

In addition do a mind scan if either of the other two pilots are willing to burn all the civilians.

There are three hellions, correct? I'm guessing the civilians are roughly in a circle shape and the hellions roughly form an equilateral triangle.

Possibility, if Plan Threaten to Murder the Leader's Family won't pan out we can open private communications with the ones unwilling to shoot civvies, tell them they will be spared if when we shoot the leader they stand down.

>>25772224
Then we need our other sniper and some really good synchronization to be able to disable all 3 hellions.

>>25772224
so we take out two and Henderson with the other sniper rifle takes out the third? Sounds workable.

>>25772224
>Current estimates of Delta Phoenix's abilities render her able to kill 2 hellion drivers before they are able to fire if she disables her cloak for psionic rounds.

So DP can take out 2 while Henderson takes out the third?

If so, my vote if for that.

>>25772224
What about the marine with a sniper rifle? Would he be able to get into effective range without being noticed? Perhaps using the dunes for cover. In addition, can his rifle penetrate the hellion, if yes we can use him to either take out a third, if absolutely necessary, or to make sure we get the second without any problem.

I'm >>25772227 by the way and I would prefer to have to deal with less of them, but if practical have contingencies set up to eliminate all three simultaneously.

>>25772224
Stall while checking the drivers' minds, if one can be convinced to not fire, try to do so and take out the other two. Otherwise have Henderson take one out.

>>25772234
But the hellions aren't the only ones there. How many marines are hanging around?

We should mind scan and pick up on who is and isn't willingly to mow down civilians right now.

>>25772224
Get Henderson to talk to this guy. He thinks he is in a position of power. He's not of course but we need him to think that he is. We need to go in and stay near a hellion so that after sniping the other two hellion drivers we can immediately kill the driver of the hellion we are near.

>>25772232
>>25772234
Yep. Do a quick mind probe of the hellion pilots if able.

>>25772227
You delve into the marine Sergeant's mind.

>"Fuckin' hate ghosts. Not even supposed to be here anyway. 'Least I might get to fry these whiny goddamn civvies before I go out. 'Nuh, these minerals are too heavy.' 'Nuh, this vespene gas rots my lungs.' They hear me bitchin' when I gotta use stims? Hell no, I love stims! Oh, right, keep an eye out, gotta shoot me a rogue ghost."

Deciding the sergeant is perhaps your worst choice for a negotiation, you scan the hellion pilots.

>"Don't try and run. Don't wanna roast ya. Please work, don't wanna die..."

>"I really think that Korhal metal has gone down over the years... can't really say I like it less than Tarsonis bluegrass though, but- Hey! Looks like he's gonna run! Oh, try it buddy. Fuckin' try it. I will buuuurnnn yoooouuu."

>"I love the Dominion. The Dominion is number 1. I will follow my superior officer's orders without question. I love the Dominion. The dominion is Number 1..."

It seems as if only one hellion will resist the order to fire.

>>25772234
Note that this will remove Delta Phoenix's cloak, and render her open to marine fire.

>>25772270
Snipe the firebug and the resoc. these guys.

>"I really think that Korhal metal has gone down over the years... can't really say I like it less than Tarsonis bluegrass though, but- Hey! Looks like he's gonna run! Oh, try it buddy. Fuckin' try it. I will buuuurnnn yoooouuu."

>"I love the Dominion. The Dominion is number 1. I will follow my superior officer's orders without question. I love the Dominion. The dominion is Number 1..."

>>25772241
Corporal Henderson would be able to move into position and eliminate 1 unit per 6 seconds at 90% efficiency. Likelihood of detection is only 12%.

>>25772281
can we get into some cover that would mean we won't die immediately as soon as we decloak?

>>25772270
Can we open up private communications with the one who doesn't feel like shooting?

Can we get the other person with a sniper rifle into position without him being noticed?

If yes to both of these here's my basic plan.

Tell Mr. Not-A-Dick Hellion Pilot "If you do not shoot on the civilians you will remain unharmed, do not move or act abnormal."

Then we uncloak, kill the two hellion pilots, the sniper blows the sergeant's head off at about the same time.

Also, you said the civilians were too close the hellions for a banshee strike, are they too close to the enemy marine contingent as well? If not we may want to bomb those fuckers.

>>25772286
Snazzy!

>>25772282
makes sense and could say that any that stand down will be spared

>>25772299
You are already in cover. The camp is sparsely covered and the metal plating available only provides 12% protection from C-14 rounds.

It is 72% likely that you will sustain wounds.

>>25772282
We still have that marine sergeant to worry about. Wait for this >>25772286


Right before we fire we should send a message to the first hellion guy. "[Name], don't hurt any of the civvies and you'll get out of this alive."

>>25772301
You are capable of Psionic communication.

I have taken the liberty of pulling records on the squad stationed here. All marines are under invasive resoc.

>>25772312
What's the chance of lethal or permanent injuries?

>>25772301
Sounds good, if we can talk to the pilot

>>25772301
>Tell Mr. Not-A-Dick Hellion Pilot "If you do not shoot on the civilians you will remain unharmed, do not move or act abnormal."
>Then we uncloak, kill the two hellion pilots, the sniper blows the sergeant's head off at about the same time.
>Also, you said the civilians were too close the hellions for a banshee strike, are they too close to the enemy marine contingent as well? If not we may want to bomb those fuckers.

This man has plan. Plan is good.

>>25772312
Would said wounds be critical?
Y/N

>>25772326
It is 12% likely you will suffer fatal injuries.

Make Corporal Henderson fire first

>>25772301
if the marines+marauder are far enough away from the civvies to hit with the banshee, then this gets my vote

>>25772346
Any way we could get into better cover or protect ourselves better?

>>25772346
if Henderson took his shot first, would they fire on him or us?

>>25772351
flak turrets are still up.

>>25772346
nnnghgh, those odds aren't great.
Can we kill one without deactivating cloak? Stall while Henderson gets in position, try to time one shot with his and talk down the third if so.

>>25772301
Good plan. If we add a marine/firebat charge immediately after the snipes, the enemy marines will be forced to attack us instead rather than the hostages.

>>25772312
That's what the medics are for.

>>25772301
The marines are close enough to the civilians that it is 43% likely civillians will be hit by shrapnel. Although this is unlikely to be lethal, it will harm morale.

>>25772360
problem is if we don't kill all three of them simultaneously they WILL fire upon the civvies.

>>25772346
Is fire support from Banshee against marines available?

>>25772370
Well, one might not.

>>25772346
Hmm, are odds improved with Banshee support bombing marine+marauder forces?

Addendum, additional plan if Banshee support isn't sufficiently helpful. If we can control Recluse Mine target acquisition we plant one, hell we can plant 3 if it'll, near marines+marauder, have them blow up the enemy forces right when we snipe the hellion pilots.

>>25772366
Would Recluse Mine usage lower risk of collateral damage?

>>25772358
Henderson's rifle allows for him to fire at a range of over 2,000 meters, outside of C-14 operational range. He will not be a likely target.

>>25772366
gonna downvote banshee strike for now.

>>25772346
I am not liking those odds, seeing as we have a plan for the hellions, we need to deal with the marines & marauder now...

How far from the civvies are the marines?

Also, what specialist rounds/gear do we have with us?

>>25772370
We can probably convince one not to fire.
